:thumb: I'm an old Mo Fo and all I had was 2 strokes. Have one in the garage now that has V-Force 3 reeds in it. When you get older and think you can still ride fast, you learn real quick you can't and that is why I stay on the stand..:prof:

Reeds are supposed to slam shut so on the up stroke of the piston, fuel/air mixture doesn't get pushed back through the reeds. They need to seal up. So yeah instead of all of your fuel/air mixture getting compressed to the top and getting the most of the bang, you loose some back out the reeds.

edit: plus it will cause unwanted fuel/air to leak in if they have a gap. Your piston down stroke sucks in the fuel/air and then it is supposed to slam shut if it doesn't shut more fuel leaks in and then you on your next piston stroke you get more fuel/air then your supposed to causing a rich condition witch will cause a sputtering condtion.

You can get Boyesen reeds not the Pro but the regular ones for about 30 bucks off ebay. I would just get those. And while your at it get a extra set but they need to be for at least an 01. If they don't fit. I think I know someone's bike they might work on :devil:
